How I did it: have always been something of an armchair polymath… with a little interest in all subjects … and just enough knowledge of them to be dangerous… or dangerously annoying. I was one of those guys who informs you … against your will … about the most inane things: like that Cashew nuts are part of the Poison Ivy Family, or that fluorescent methyl salicylate is why you can shoot sparks off your teeth when you bite a Wint-o-green Life Save… Read how I did it…
I’m in a position now where I can do this without taking a lot of shit, or worrying about losing my job. I can’t say what I do for a living, but it’s a decent gig.
We were gifted about a quarter ounce of what was mostly medical grade weed for Christmas. It’s going now, but it was sublime.
Some days it seems like you just get tangled up in everything. You drop everything. You pull shit down.
Life is a delicate balance and I tend to lose it so often.
